Research 2011 - Cobalt Boats - 296

First, we listened. The 296 grew from direct Cobalt response to the expressed wishes of its owners-to-be. The result: a boat fusing convenience, performance, and spacious comfort in a go-anywhere, do-anything study in customer satisfaction. While pulling into port with a comprehensive list of standard features, the 296 does more with its options than perhaps any other model in the Cobalt line. Some thoughtful selection here can create uncommon value, in a boat that serves the most knowledgeable, the discriminating owner with teak floors and a stainless-steel arch for high drama, GPS with satellite weather and Merc's Axius joystick steering system for taking care of business. Open, inviting, ready for the big water just ahead, the 296 means outdoor living at its most elegant, outdoor adventure at its most refined.
